Spivak
April 3, 2006
Another blogweave, this time on Gayatri Spivak’s “Scattered Speculations on the Question of Value”, which Craig (once again), has generously shared - you’ll find the pdf here. It’s scheduled for between April 17 and the 23rd.
Related readings online: “Subaltern Studies” [pdf], “Ghostwriting” [pdf], and “The trajectory of the subaltern in my work”.
Hi Angela,
I definitely want to be in this event, though I have no cyber-territory as yet.
In fact I’m just back from a conference (U of florida, Marxist Read. Gr.) where she was one of the keynotes, and where she made another epochal statement: “American Marxism is a Joke!”
I’m not someone who’s read everything by her or anything, but ghostwriting is definitely one of my favorite texts (and I’m working on Assia Djebar for the dissertation, too). But the thing is I find her ‘unlocatability’ brilliant, and i think the so called idiosyncracy has to do with a resistance to consumubality…
But, do you think i’ll be welcome to join the event?

Don’t see why not pomegrenade. I’ll pass you along to Jon though, who is scheduling/arranging contributions.
